Certainly they may be new, and some of them may be strange, but as
creative endevors, they are to be upheld as a testimate to the

to create - and recreate - themselves. It is
precisely our refusal to accept our biological
destiny which makes us more than insects.
Unlike our fellow species, we can transform
ourselves through thought and action.
